Now that cold weather is here, my nails are peeling, breaking and feel weaker than ever. I was looking for a product to help with that and I went back to a product that I've wanted for a long time, but never wanted to pay for. I finally just sucked it up and paid the $30 for it and I'm glad I did!

Perfect Formula Pink Gel Coat
Before & After
Basic stats for Perfect Formula Pink Gel Coat:
Formula: a sheer pink polish that strengths and brightens nails
Coverage: sheer
Cost/Availability: $30 (0.60 fl oz full size). Available on the Perfect Formula website, Sephora's website, and QVC's website.
My Rating: 5 out of 5 Kisses!
Formula:
This polish can be used as your base coat to strengthen and brighten nails, but also can be used on its own. Protein rich coating instantly strengthens, seals and protects natural nails so they can grow strong and long. Optical brighteners bring out the natural color in your nail bed and filter out any yellow appearance in the nails. They immediately appear healthier.
Coverage:
Sheer... basically clear with a tint of pink.

$30 (0.60 fl oz full size). Available on the Perfect Formula website, Sephora's website, and QVC's website.
Perfect Formula Pink Gel Coat Review:
I have to be honest and admit I really didn't want to like this. The price, $30, is a lot of money for one bottle of polish - even if it is a special base coat. I only purchased this because QVC had two easy-pay on it the exact day I was searching for a product to help my nails. It turns out I love this!
Due to polishing my nails as often as I do, I have some staining. I was hoping this product would help my natural nails look pretty again. I think it does! It doesn't take out all the yellow, but it certainly makes them appear brighter and more pink in tone. In person, and in regular lighting, my nails look near perfect. It's just the studio lighting makes the staining look worse than it is; studio lighting shows every flaw! In person you can't even notice the yellow!
I also like how shiny my nails look and how much stronger they feel. I haven't been using this product long enough to say if it's really good in the long run or not, but so far so good!
You can put regular nail polish directly over top with no issues, but my nails looked so pretty that I went "naked" for a full day without putting any polish on them. For me, that's huge. I never leave my house without polish.
I do recommend this to all polish-addicts who can't stand breaking, peeling and weak nails. The price is steep, but you don't need to use a lot. You're supposed to use this just once a week, so this one bottle will last you a very, very long time.
